Chapter 63: The Industrious Bees

August 16, 1940, northwest of Shanxi

Today is the thirteenth lunar calendar, it is said that the moonlight should be very good, but like the situation in the land of North China, the entire northwest of Shanxi is shrouded in a cloud, a silver-white Li-2 transport plane is venturing in the clouds lightly, if you are in the cockpit, you will find that you can't see anything at all, this plane is completely relying on instruments to fly over the mountainous northwest of Shanxi.

Piloting this transport plane was Wang Yue, considering that the Eighth Route Army was likely to launch that large-scale sabotage battle against the Japanese army, he felt that he had to airdrop some weapons to the Eighth Route Army, especially light offensive weapons.

Besides, as an arms dealer, it is not good to not appear in the northwest of Shanxi for a few months, it is easy to be thought that he is anchored with Li Yunlong, which is not good for himself or Li Yunlong.

This time, Wang Yue drove a Li-2 transport plane to cross the airspace of Qijiang County, and then did not stop, and immediately flew to the northwest of Jin, thanks to the scanning function of the system, he can monitor the situation within a radius of ten kilometers, so the difficulty of flying at night is not great.

When he came to the predetermined airspace, after scanning that there was no one nearby, Wang Yue released the airborne bags stored in the space to the outside of the plane, and then umbrella flowers bloomed, and according to the expected route, most of these airborne bags fell into a valley.

Wang Yue drove back again, scanned it carefully, these airborne bags were not broken, nor were they blown away, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, it's really good, the quality of these airborne bags produced in Binzhou is really good, but it is also because of his low-altitude parachute, it seems that in the future, he will not have to face the eyes of Brigade Commander Chen every time to look at the monster.

turned on the previously agreed band call, and soon Zhang Wanhe's surprised voice came from the other side, it has been almost three months, Wang Yue's voice appeared on the radio again, making Zhang Wanhe on the other side wonder if he didn't wake up.

Soon, a series of bonfires were lit near the airport in Daxia Bay, in order to guide Wang Yue to land, the Eighth Route Army was still rhythmically shooting a lot of signal flares into the sky, no way, do a full set of plays, if people see that they can land in the dark night, I am afraid that the airdrop that they worked so hard to do before will be in vain.

As soon as Wang Yue opened the hatch, Brigade Commander Chen greeted him warmly, and hugged Wang Yue very excitedly, after a few months, many people were worried that Wang Yue's channel might have problems, and even someone said something very bad, and now, Wang Yue's return made all the discord disappear in an instant.

In the sweep that just ended, the losses of the Taiyue Military Region were not large, and even caused a lot of losses to the Japanese army, but in areas other than Shanxi, the losses of the Eighth Route Army were large, in order to prevent the Eighth Route Army from changing its clothes, Gangcun Ningci was like crazy, and used almost all the hole cards in his hand, causing great losses to the Eighth Route Army in North China, which directly led to the continuous postponement of the big raid plan planned by the boss.

In order to restore the combat effectiveness of the fraternal troops as soon as possible, the General Headquarters transferred a large number of technical weapons and personnel from Jin Province, especially from the Taiyue Military Region.

"Brigade Commander Chen, where's Lao Zhang?" Wang Yue chatted with Brigade Commander Chen for a while, only to find out that Zhang Wanhe was not in Daxiawan.

"I took the convoy to search for the airborne package, and it is said that I have already seen the valley." Brigade Commander Chen smiled bitterly, he used to think that it seemed easy for Wang Yueyun to enter the base area, but every time it seemed to be delivered to them, he suddenly carried out an airdrop, and the Eighth Route Army was really a little uncomfortable.

"There were too many supplies that were transported before, which damaged the organization's communication lines, and it is being rebuilt recently, and we can only fly it in a short time." Wang Yue looked helpless, he wanted to let Li Yunlong be driven back by the Ministry of Military Affairs, but he never thought that Yamamoto Kazuki that guy would go to Chongqing to do such a big thing, and actually let Li Yunlong make a contribution to saving the driver, I really don't know how to develop in the next step, but fortunately, during this time, Wang Yue was also prepared with both hands, so that Chen Xi customized a lot of airborne bags of various specifications.

"Are there many casualties?" Brigade Commander Chen asked with concern that because the Eighth Route Army had obtained a large amount of weapons, equipment, and materials, a major investigation had been launched within the entire Japanese army in North China, and Brigade Commander Chen knew about this matter, so he naturally thought that Wang Yue's organization had suffered heavy losses in this investigation.

"It's hard to say, but the deal between us will be maintained by air transport, but because of the limited number of aircraft, the amount of weapons and ammunition provided at a time will not be very large." Wang Yue smiled bitterly and shook his head, before he came, he used the system to inspect the situation on Li Yunlong's side, and saw that this guy was giving someone a blood transfusion in the ward, and that person also looked at Li Yunlong with appreciation, it seemed that this was already Jane in the Sacred Heart.

"It's okay, as long as the weapons are there." Brigade Commander Chen looked at the plane behind Wang Yue, and his mood was a little low, feeling that Wang Yue would not bring back too many things this time.

"This time I brought 100 F-10 1902/30 76.2mm field guns, 2,000 rounds of 76.2mm shells, and tomorrow I will send another 4,000 rounds of 76.2mm shells and some guns. Wang Yue saw Brigade Commander Chen's worries, and hurriedly explained, but the space of a thousand cubic meters is too small, and it is really not an ordinary trouble to fly from Chongqing.

"So much!" Brigade Commander Chen was shocked at the moment, the carrying capacity of the aircraft in these years is limited, and if Wang Yue's things are airdropped, there are really a lot of planes needed.

"It's far worse than before, but the channel of the Yangtze River on my side is still unblocked, so we can also turn around through Chongqing in the future." Wang Yue stinks and farts, where is this, how many materials he threw into Qijiang County, there are no less than 10,000 tons of canned food alone, and there are more than 20,000 tons in the follow-up, and he is now considering whether to continue to produce this kind of super-large cans.

"It's a lot, it's really a lot." Brigade Commander Chen sighed, he still likes the 76.2mm artillery very much, the 122mm howitzer provided by Wang Yue before is very easy to use, but the artillery and shells are too heavy, and the transportation is very inconvenient, there are lightweight 76.2mm guns, which can make the Eighth Route Army move faster and fight farther, the key is the F-10 1902/30 76.2mm field gun, which Brigade Commander Chen has also used, which is very light and easy to use.

"Brigade Commander Chen, if our Eighth Route Army has any special needs, you can also tell me, and I will find a way to organize it for us." Wang Yue has always felt that the transaction between himself and the Eighth Route Army is too casual, and he has always asked for what he gives the Eighth Route Army, and he has not given the Eighth Route Army a choice at all.

"We need anti-tank weapons and anti-aircraft weapons, lightweight, we have a considerable number of tanks in Jin Province that can be used against Japanese tanks, and there are also some anti-aircraft machine guns, but it is still very difficult in other base areas outside Jin Province, there is no effective anti-armor and anti-aircraft firepower, and in this sweep, the Japanese army's armored troops and aviation have caused us great losses." Brigade Commander Chen was a little gloomy, in fact, whether it was a tank or an airplane, it was some garbage goods, but it was this garbage that still caused huge losses to the Eighth Route Army.

"I'm already thinking of a way, or I'll sell us another hundred tanks? Is it the kind that Li Yunlong's regiment is equipped with? Wang Yue smiled bitterly, he was actually strange, North Africa is so tragic armored fighting, the noodle country should be equipped with a large number of anti-armor and anti-aircraft weapons, but I have seen it many times in the base, and I have found a lot of messy things, but the anti-armor and anti-aircraft weapons that I need most are not at all.

Tasha has it, but either it is too advanced to bring it, or it is too heavy, and it does not meet the requirements of the Eighth Route Army, and the quadruple Maxim heavy machine gun can also be used, but the problem is that Li Yunlong found that there was a problem with the bullets he provided after trying it out, and the frequent death of the gun greatly affected the performance of this heavy machine gun.

"The devil's plane is now staring at the Yellow River every day, and if you want to transport fuel in northern Shaanxi, you can only take advantage of the night, not to mention the large reduction in volume, and the loss is also large, and the superior means that you can buy tanks, but not too much." Brigade Commander Chen explained with a bitter face.

In the sweep that just ended, the Eighth Route Army also frequently used tank units and achieved very good results, but the problem was that their poor fuel reserves had been exhausted, and now they had to hide their tanks.

"Isn't the devil's plane in Jin Province insufficient?" Wang Yueqi said: As poor imperialists, the Japanese actually have very little capital in their hands, not to mention that a large number of advanced planes have been transferred to bomb Chongqing, even in peacetime, the Japanese army does not have the ability to completely blockade the Yellow River.

"Yamamoto's unit has formed an air force, and Okamura Ninji has obtained a batch of retired fighters from the Japanese mainland, including 100 Type 91 fighters and 20 Type 87 light explosive planes, which maintain high-density patrols along the Yellow River every day." Brigadier Chen explained helplessly.

"It's strange, where did they get the fuel and pilots, I said before that Yamamoto's troops have dozens of planes, why did they come here with more than a hundred, this is not scientific." Wang Yue was also a little confused.

"The pilots are all trained by themselves, Yamamoto Kazuki has a training course in Taiyuan, the use of a simple process, two months can train a group of pilots, although the technology may not be comparable to ours, but it is indeed possible to take to the air to fight, as for the fuel, it is the dispatch army that allows them to purchase it themselves, as for whether there are other channels is not very clear." Brigadier Cheng continued to explain.

"Brigade Commander Chen, as far as I know, the Type 91 fighter and the Type 87 light explosive aircraft are not advanced things, why don't you try to hit them?"

"Mr. Wang, we thought so at first, so we sent P-1 fighters to ambush them, but the pilots of the little devils are all crazy, they don't fight with you in the air at all, they collide with you when they come up, and they shot down four of our planes in the first encounter, and after that, the headquarters did not continue to fight with them in the air." Brigade Commander Chen smiled bitterly, the air battle in which rookies pecked each other, and they carried out suicide attacks when they came up, which really deserved to be Japanese.

"Kamikaze!" Wang Yue was stunned.
